[Resolved] CPU Data

[Gandalf]

It appears that an attachment can only be submitted in a New Topic.

So, Mr. Lebowski, can you take a look at this, attached, data. Since I haven't worked with PCBs, since the PDP11 days, I could use your evaluation. I've not messed with the CPU or the Motherboard settings since their installation.

Thanks...

[Lebowski]

Nice but what about it?

[Gandalf]

Thank you...

[Lebowski]

You're confusing at times

[Gandalf]

Good...

It's called Preventive Medicine.
If there had been something wrong, I'm sure you would said something.
When you said, "Nice", I took it to mean that there were not apparent problems.
If you had though something should have been adjusted, I think you would have said something.

OK? Less confusing now?
(Maybe, I should have left him confused) (No, that wouldn't have been proper.)
(Ah, you won't let me have any fun...)

Welcome to PC PitStop!

and send a tech express link our way.. I myself have been looking at these tests for years and they are pretty acurate at getting what you want to know out of em...Like here is mine
Test Results Summary

[Gandalf]

Merlin, I'm acquainted with Pitstop. I worked with one of their people to help them come up with a Vista version of Disk MD. Their XP version is close, but there were still issues with the Vista application. I haven't checked back with them lately to see if they have all the bugs worked out or not.

I was trying to get them to incorporate a boot time system file defrag function.
Also, I'm was trying to get them to incorporate a CHKDSK function, kind of the way Norton did, with tighter specs than MS requires. Even SpinRite doesn't mark bad spots as bad. Before I reconfigured my HDD to exclude the bad stops (SpinRite did show me those even though it didn't mark them as bad.), I had to reinstall Vista so many times that now I have to buy a new copy of Vista for the new KEY. That 's one of my bitches with MS. They should provide a feedback on how many reinstalls you have left. Not that that would have mattered. Until I fixed my C: drive, Vista kept installing itself in the bad spots anyway.

Well, thanks for the input anyway. My code 2 and code 7 problems all stemmed from the bad C: drive. As soon as I fixed the C: drive the Code 2 and Code 7 error went away.

Later...

Merlin, checkout my attachment and please tell me why your score is about twice mine.

Howdy Wabeard..

There is a couple reason's. My cpu is way way overclocked.. It is running at an AMD 6000+ cpu speeds. Since mine is also dual core it is whipping that core duo. Thats why I will only buy AMD (cheaper and I can overclock them much higher.) Second I have 2 western digital raptors (10,000 rpm Hard drives) in Raid 0. The pit score goes allot on your Hard drive disk input output (IO) If I use my stock settings on my cpu I get around 2500 but again that is mainly beause I am getting 160 on my disk scores and you are only getting 41, But AMD in real life and in tests just cannot be whooped by INTEL. Yours is about right though..

Also remember AMD's cpu names are tricky. Mine says its a 4200+ which means it should run at a comparable Intel @ 4.2ghz but only runs @ 2.2ghz (nominal speeds) but I got mine to a 2.9 ghz overclock.

Your stuff looks fine.. I would not worry about it.

[Gandalf]

Query... dual core ... core duo???
What are we talking about?
They're both two CPUs, yes?

[Lebowski]

It laughed at me
